Tai Chi for Arthritis Fall Prevention Workshop

An evidence-based program that is supported by the Center for Disease Control to improve balance, this Sun Style tai chi protocol was created by Dr. Paul Lam, a family physician and Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Patience White of the Arthritis Foundation. It is used in facilities worldwide to promote relaxation, flexibility, strength and prevent falls. The simple “Basic Six Movements,” are fun, effective and safe. Anyone can do it! Come dressed in comfortable clothing and flat soled shoes.
